DPP Hackathon

A proud moment from the DSGO Hackathon. Last week, the UP-tempo project came to life during the 5-day DSGO Hackathon, organised by digiGO.nu — and it delivered a great result.

Out of 9 teams, the UP-tempo case secured 3rd place 🏆 — showing how Digital Product Passports and verifiable data can actually work in practice across the construction chain.

A big shout-out to Brent Martens for this achievement. It's also great to see the collaboration behind the result: Hogeschool Utrecht, Quintessence Research B.V., and a special thanks to Helmer Van Merendonk for the guidance throughout the process.

A strong example of what happens when innovation, collaboration and hands-on building come together.
